CS/MENSTRUAL RETURN

Hey mama! Sa akin, bumalik ang period ko around 4-5 months postpartum kahit exclusive breastfeeding, pero nakita ko sa mga kaibigan ko na tumagal ng 1-2 years bago bumalik, talaga lang siya varies per person depending sa how frequent ang breastfeeding and kung gaano kalaki ang baby mo. Minsan ang inaaasahan nating delayed period dahil sa breastfeeding ay hindi talaga guaranteed, lalo na kung may supplementation na, pero honestly walang standard time frame so hindi ka nag-iisa dyan. Kung worried ka or sobrang matagal na, pwede mo i-check sa OB mo just to be sure lahat normal lang.

Ah mama, it really varies talaga! A few of us in my circle got our period back after 3-4 months of exclusive breastfeeding, pero may iba na delayed until they started introducing formula or solids around 6 months. The lactational amenorrhea is real pero hindi guaranteed, kaya better safe than sorry with contraception pag sexually active ka na ulit!
